Tired
looking eyes? It doesn't mean you can't fake it! There are plenty of ways to
make eyes look bright and sparkling, even when you've woken up with red, tired
looking eyes or dark circles underneath. Many people swear by cucumbers to cool
the area, or even splashing cold water on their face, but there are other
options too.
Start
by opening the eye up by using eyelash curlers - this quick and easy trick will
make your eyes appear more wide open and alert instantly. A nude or white
eyeliner, applied to your lower waterline, will also quickly take away that red
look from eyes, making eyes also appear more open and clear. Still looking red?
There are whitening eyedrops that can help get rid of any redness still
leftover and also soothe.
There
are also treatments for under eyes that can help those dark areas vanish - a
caffeine roll-on is a popular treatment, or apply some soothing vitamin C cream
can help revitalise. To help neutralise the dark or tired looking skin
underneath, apply a concealer to just the small area that needs it, but don't
cake it on – a light layer looks much more natural and set the look with an
illuminating powder to reflect light. Yves Saint Laurent's Touche Elat has
always been popular when it comes to concealing that dark under eye area, with
its liquid formula that tends to also add a slight sparkle, creating healthy
and fresh looking skin.
Add
some mascara and if all else fails, throw on a bright lip colour with a neutral
eye - this changes the focal point of your beauty look and will have people
noticing your lips more than eyes, and it's also an on-trend makeup look to
give a go.
